Summary:

Exploring topics at the forefront of current lipid research, this book provides an introduction to functional lipidomics. With the help of an international panel of contributors, the editors capture the first snapshot of the current state-of-the-art in functional lipodomics, provide a comprehensive background for scientists new to the field, and supply a resource for developing didactic courses in lipid cell signaling and lipid bioinformatics. Using both academic and industrial perspectives, the book covers lipid analysis approaches, diagnostics using lipid and lipid-binding protein patterns, and the therapeutic significance in targeting proteins involved with the lipid signaling pathway.
